Stand Still, Don’t Run Away, My Little Wife

In a daze in the morning, she felt that someone had kissed her brow.

What was said in her ear, she was too sleepy to hear clearly, only heard the door closing.

Then, she fell asleep again.

When she opened her eyes again, it was almost noon.

Raymond had gone to the company, and she was the only one in the big bed.

Last night, there was no pain like the first time, even－

She almost sank into the tenderness, his kiss, his breath, his body temperature…

All of them made her respond. He knew herself too well and it was only a matter of time before she had another relationship with him.

With that engagement, she had no right to refuse him again.

After cleaning herself up, she remembered something. He didn’t do anything last night. She needed to take medicine.

The contraceptive pill taken from Henry should have been in her own room before, but when she went back to look for it, she could not find it in that room.

How strange, it was clearly in the cupboard.

“Is Miss Macaulay looking for something?”

“Susan, have you seen the medicine in the cabinet?”

“I don’t remember, it was sorted out.”

Susan couldn’t remember too clearly. Although Danae now lived in a room with Raymond, the servants still came to clean her previous room at any time.

“Is there anything that cannot be found?”Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Looking at her anxious appearance, Susan thought that something valuable was missing and was preparing to call the servant who cleaned the room to ask.

“No, nothing…”

Danae shook her head. She just went out to buy it later. As long as it was within 24 hours, there should be no leakage.

“Is Miss Macaulay going out?”

“Well, I borrowed a book from the school library and wanted to return it.”

Since it had been decided not to go to the University in the future, it was better to return earlier.

… …

On the way to school, she asked the driver to stop the car－

“My throat was a little uncomfortable. Please wait for me.”

She knew that someone would report her every move to him, so when buying medicine, she also bought a box of throat medicine.

The clerk looked up at her and asked：

“How old are you?”

“… what’s the matter?”

She did not understand whether her buying medicine had anything to do with her age.

“If you take this medicine for the first time, you must pay attention to it. The side effects are quite large, especially if the uterine wall is thin. Do not take this contraceptive at will.”

The birth control pill. She was talking about that.

Danae frowned and did not understand what the clerk was saying. Before Henry prescribed to her, why didn’t there be so many taboos?

“Oh.”

She nodded vaguely. In fact, even if she was clear, she had to eat the same thing.

She couldn’t be pregnant.

She bought water and took a medicine directly to cross it.

Put the rest in her pocket and returned to the car with throat medicine in her hand.

The driver tilted his eyes at the medicine in her hand. She stopped talking and looked at the scenery through the window.

In the library, she returned the books. When she was ready to go back, she saw the girl tiptoe to pick up the books on the shelf on the higher floor.

That’s Anne.

Danae was taller than her, walked over and stood on tiptoe to take down the book.

She saw that it was Danae and hooked the lip angle：

“Thank you.”

Anne seemed a little tired. She took the book with one hand and caressed her slightly raised lower abdomen with the other. In fact, she could not see it without looking closely.

“Are you all right?”

“It’s okay.”

Anne shook her head, but the increasingly pale lip color, forehead covered with fine sweat, seemed to breathe a little shortness of breath.

She didn’t know why, Danae always thought of herself when she saw her.

She was not allowed to get pregnant herself, probably the same, because there was a precedent of Anne.

“I heard that you are going to out of school.”

Anne leaned against the bookshelf and slowly opened her mouth after stabilizing herself.

“Uh－huh.”

“If it were me, I don’t think I could afford the public opinion on campus.”

“It has nothing to do with this.”

Danae wanted to out of school, which had nothing to do with this, just because there was no expectation here.

I also did not know what the meaning of staying was.

She read the book in her hand, which was the introduction of the Paris Conservatory of Music.

Thinking of the piano music in the piano room last time, the Conservatory of Music in Paris was indeed a good place to pursue music art.

“I just look at it. I have no other ideas.”

Perhaps others thought that she wanted to go here, which was why she came to understand. But Anne knew very well that she could not go to this college.

The left hand couldn’t lift heavy objects up to now, let alone play the piano flexibly and harmoniously.

Paris, Music, Pianist’s Dream－

It had long been destroyed by that man. Destruction in the name of love was the most terrible thing.

Danae’s cell phone rang, and she realized that she had a cell phone, but she could only answer the phone from one person.

“Come to the airport now.”

“What…”

“I decided to go out and talk about a project temporarily. I may not see you for half a month.”

Danae： “…”

So, was he going to take her with him or was he just－

Meet her before boarding the plane?

After closing her cell phone, she said goodbye to Anne and left to go.

From time to time, she looked back at the people who were still standing in front of the bookshelf.

For a moment, she felt that she was not the saddest person.
